The Democrats Hold the Key to the

BOSTON, Jan. 17.-Each branch of the Massachusetts legislature will vote tomorrow for United States senator to succeed Sena- tor Dawes. On Wednesday at noon con vention of the two houses will be held and if it appears that both branches have voted for the same person he will be declared elected senator, but if such is not the case the joint assembly must then proceed to choose Q senator, taking one ballot each day until the work is accomplished It is generally be- lieved that Congressman Long will lead in the vote tomorrow; that Senator Dawes will fall some twenty votes behind MT. Long and that ex-Governor Robinson will receive per haps two-thirds many votes as MI. Dawes. The Democrats hold the key to the situation, and as Democratic interests lie in the return of MT. Dawes rather than a younger man, impartial observers think that ne will event ually be returned and if not that Robinson will succeed him.
 An Empty Honor for Collins.
 BOSTON, Jan. 1.-The Democrats of both houses of the legislature held caucus after the adjournment to-day and nominated P. A. Ceiling for United States Senator.

Copied from Portrait 23O Years Old.
 When Elihu Yale founded that time hon. pred institution of learning Yale College, he struck blow at ignorance that has rever- berated for more than two centuries through out the length and breadth of the land, and placed his name in the foremost rank of Amelfca's public benefactors. But greater scoarge than ignorance is now running rampant in our midst. Do you know what ails you when you have dull headache ,no appetite; nothing tastes good that you eats specks pass before your eyes; low spirits; an irritable and peevish temper; bowels con- stipated; an appearance of red or white brick dust in the urine; tired feeling and don't know what ails youe You have fallen a victim to that modern scourge, Malarfa. Nothing on this earth will tone YOU up so quickly and arrest the progress of Malaria as Lewis, Red Jacket Bitters. the only sure cure for Dumb Ague, Chills and Fever, and all forms of Malaria.

AKRON, O., Jan. 17.--George Krick, one of the officers of the Summit county infrma cy, who was charged with the paternity of the child of Ellen Towner, an inmate of the institution, was acquitted by the grand jury Saturday.

Patients were starved and beaten brutally and many were afflicted with Q loathesome diseaee. When inmates died the remains were carted away by boys and as al- legged on one occasion when the drivers were indulging in race the nude corpses were strewn along the public highway. A vigor- ous investigation will shortly begin.

EDITOR WESTERN APPEAL:
Enclosed please find $3.50 for which
you will renew my subscription to your
valu"b BILE paper for another year. [ have
been constant reader of your inter
esting and sociable journa, ever since
the initial number was launched upon
the journalistic sea, and can truly say
that I have been much benefited and
instructed by its perusal. AS I have
never seen anything in your interesting
paper concerning Sioux City and its re-
markable growth and development, I
thought a few points in regard to the
same would not be out of place. Its
population is estimated at twenty-eight
or thirty-thousand It is a great rail-
road center, having five grand trunk
lines entering the city, with its many
branches penetrating a vast scope OF
beautiful and productive country. af-
fording easy and rapid communication
to various portions of the
surrounding country. 1t is fast be-
coming a great manufacturing center,
and capitalists are not slow in taking adj
vantage of its natural location 1t has
colored population of about 500, most Of
them owning their own homes and all
seemingly prospecting, in a like manner
with other classes of citizens; and /
would add in this connection that it is
undoubtedly a good location for others
of a like disposition to make it their
homes and become identified with the
boom and general advantages of live
go ahead city.
We have an "A. M e. church which is
! well attended, a masonic lodge and seven
other societies all in good condition.
The colored citizens of this place cele-
DRAFTED the anniversary of the emanci-
patton of the slaves in the West Indies,
which was done in very creditable mot
to say enthusiastic manner, the cele-
bration consisted of a parade, led by
Curtis Carter, marshall Of the day, fol
lowed by platoon Of city police and q
